I always cringe whenever someone who is well tenured on managing IT projects says on a group call that "They're not really a technical person"... It's often the result of being someone's protected buddy, but let&#x2

I can't fathom what anyone past the age of awareness would want to spend time talking to a knowingly dead audience based off of LLM=Based ai with no potential of building any sort of meaningful reputation or profit for their work, but

I'd make the more believable assumption that it's basically collusion between all kinds of device makers, OS makers, and software makers to transcribe voice to text that is stored in once central location on the device, then made

Writing notes only on paper in a properly secured notebook is about to make a big comeback as more and more people realize that it's fast becoming the only way to prevent AI/ML from indexing and leaking their original IP to the co

Most of these projects are too similar in nature to succeed to begin with... Everyone is out to create yet another text chat bot or an image maker and then slap Google Authentication on it and tricks to get people to enroll into a monthly $

For ages now Microsoft has been hiding and over-complicating config management on their OS'es. It should be an issue cited by legal authorities. Task manager for example could clearly highlight processes that are part of the original O

I think the key to keeping a site/app good for as long as possible is to avoid an IPO... The need for dramatic year-over-year profit increase ruins the very fabric of innovation. Reddit also got rid of the very key features to it'

You've made no point as to your views, you've only picked out parts of mine and then played higher ground.... There's nothing really to respond to in essence. Tell me why you're personally against Diversity, Equity, and

As someone who works in a very diversified company, and frequently hires candidates of all cultures and creeds, the entire "DEI" discussion is deeply cringe-worthy to me, especially the comments under this article. A company that

So it appears that OP is only using items off YouTube front page as options on channels? I think this would be a lot more interesting if it chose more randomized content, especially having an option for content with low views... Also, an op

Interesting, This is apparently a TikTok-like scroller for youtube channel content, which they should have done natively many years ago... I suspect they never did this because they never wanted to make YouTube compete directly with cable T

As a musician myself, who has also brushed elbows in coming up amongst friends within the industry, one of the most vital skills a musician can learn is that avoiding overexposure is the key to long-term survival, just as much as making gre

Testing in software dev is taken completely for granted by many companies on mission-critical updates... Back in the day, our deployments would get tested on configs new & old and with several different variables, we always made sure de

I think the #1 dark pattern is how cell phone makers collude with app makers to opportunistically and illegally turn the expensive devices that WE PAY FOR into bugs & telemetric devices that listen to all of our conversations and then p

Google and Apple should put an end to it. Not only does it create a mess for authentication across sites, it also deceptively modifies and tracks interactions outside of an app's boundaries, sending that activity back to app makers tha

Kudos to the EU for taking action where the US hasn't for a company operating within the US... It's really out of hand how such a useful site has been scuttled and manipulative for so many people that relied upon it, even well pri

If I could afford to pay for a reasonably priced Ai laundry & delivery service I would surely do it. If it was done by a robot that also cooked basic meals and cleaned my house, that would be invaluable to not just me, but many. A compa

Ai is ages away from being able to emulate the passion and intuition behind music, writing, and art that humans have cultivated for centuries. It can only emulate that passion even still, so it relies on a theft from human intellect & r

Adobe is the new comcast... Cancellation fees? There is also no security in using any other tool, especially with this predatory precedent, and especially if you're designing in a web browser. My best option is to use a copy of CS6 on
